Stephanie Syjuco (born 1974, in Manila, Philippines), is a Filipino-American conceptual artist and educator. She currently lives and works in San Francisco Career Syjuco's artwork explores the friction between the authentic and the counterfeit, addressing political concerns regarding issues of labor and economies within the capitalist system. In 2009 she created Copystand: An autonomous manufacturing zone for the Frieze Art Fair in London. The Wall Street Journal notes: "Other artists, meanwhile, are openly toying with the fair's changing economics... San Francisco-based artist Stephanie Syjuco and several of her artist friends are making copycat versions of their favorite fair pieces, which she is selling at "heavily discounted" prices ranging from roughly $30 to $750." She is an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley. She is represented by Catharine Clark Gallery in San Francisco. Her work is in the collection of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Di rosa, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. She is the recipient of a 2014 Guggenheim Fellowship in Visual Arts and a 2009 Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters and Sculptors Program grant.
